Xperia Ear available in-store from this week

Consider yourself reminded that Xperia Ear – Sony Mobile’s intelligent personal assistant – is going to be landing in stores across the world from this week.

First unveiled back at MWC in February, Xperia Ear is a whole new way to get the info you need, when you need it, all via an oh-so-small and surprisingly comfortable earpiece.

Not only does it handle the usual phone functions using voice control (make and receive calls, listen to and compose text messages), Xperia Ear comes into its own as a nifty personal assistant. It can deliver a heads-up on your schedule, give you directions, inform you of the weather and plenty more.

You can read the full lowdown on Xperia Ear in our pre-order post from last week, check out the specs here, and see it in action in the film below.

And yes, tapping your ear and talking to yourself could make you look like a secret agent, as if you needed another reason to check out the newest addition to the Xperia family.

Too busy to head to the shops? Xperia Ear is available at the eStore here.
